The choice available for mobile-compatible social games is really quite extensive, which is why this article has been put together. Below you can find some of the hottest social games available right now, with all compatible on mobile devices.

Clash of Clans is one of the most popular games on the app store at the moment. It has the ability to keep you entertained for days on end. The way the game allows you to continuously progress prevent you from ever getting bored of it. In the game, players build a village, gather resources and raid other clans. Players can join ‘clans’ and team up with people from all over the world.

In this version of the classic game Scrabble, players are paired up to see who can score the most points. Each player selects a username which allows them to be found by other players. Besides just being a fun game, this is also quite educational, keeping your brain active and thinking of new words. You can have multiple games happening at once, meaning you always have a turn to play.

In this massive multiplayer game, you will enter a world of castles, armies and magic as you create your own kingdom. You must build an army, form alliances and conquer new land to become to dominant force.

This game operates similarly to Words with Friends, in that players are paired up and play a game turn by turn. This is similar to the classic game Pictionary and players get credit and points for drawing quickly and accurately as well as guessing other peoples drawings. Given the artistic nature, this definitely works better on tablet devices.

Available on iOS and Android, this is another city building game. Homer has caused a meltdown and it is the player’s job to rebuild Springfield. Interact with many of the infamous Simpsons characters as your town develops. Party with the Duff Man at the brewery and complete tasks to earn donuts!

Join thousands of other players across the globe in another strategy game as you build your own kingdom. Create the strongest army you can, upgrade your buildings to withstand attacks from other players and battle it out to become the unbeatable force on the map.
